I decided to check this out. I think this reporter is reasonably reliable:<br /><br />"CBS White House reporter Mark Knoller is the unofficial but widely trusted chronicler of data on presidential travels and other day-to-day White House goings-on, so we turned to his calculations.<br /><br />On Aug. 8, 2014, Knoller tweeted that Obama had taken 19 vacations totaling 125 days so far while in office. Those numbers have risen a bit due to the Martha’s Vineyard vacation, but that’s still many fewer than George W. Bush’s 65 combined trips to his Texas ranch and his parents’ home in Kennebunkport, Maine, which totaled 407 days at the same point in his presidency."<br /><br />Other presidents who out-golfed the President: Eisenhower (just under 800 rounds), and Woodrow Wilson, the reigning champion of Presidential golfers. Wilson managed some 1,200 rounds during his time in office.<br /><br />Regarding his Starbucks salute, I don't care how he does this, as long as he does not send American troops to the Middle East. We've been there, done that already.Melhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01438568757950816935noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3407817413258733695.post-78818344502235769672014-09-24T11:43:58.748-07:002014-09-24T11:43:58.748-07:00Nothing new to see there, move along people...

I guess that's why we're bombing command and control compounds at night when nobody is in them. That makes perfect sense to me. We don't want to actually kill them. Just blow up some mud buildings.<br /><br />And to show solidarity, the president salutes with his cuppa mud. It makes sense when you look at it that way.LLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05538854359365988863noreply@blogger.com
